Trust

An Exhibition by Cherie Durant

Cherie Durant’s second annual solo show at Aspire Gallery, Kennedy Tce, Paddington will be held from 22 November till 2nd December.The title of the exhibition is “Trust” and is also the title of a work in the exhibition.

Cherie produces predominantly small to medium works working in coloured pencil to create intricate and delicate works. Her subject matter comes from nature and ranges from feathers (read lots of feathers!), pebbles, leaves and shells. She has also branched out this year to include birds and trees in some works. She states that her work is not following a trend or created to match someone’s décor; rather it is intended to strike a chord, sending a genuine heartfelt message to the viewer.On the back of each work she attaches the title of the work as well as an additional message related to that work. These messages are of inspiration, hope, love or joy. Cherie says that we all need a reminder to love ourselves a little more, to recharge our batteries with some ‘me’ time – including meditation, or to shine our light in the world.
